Adventures Of Drummer The Little Mouse Kid
Hello My Young Friends,
Here is a short story for you.
Drummer is a cute little mouse with dark grey whiskers that turn red when Drummer gets scared. Drummer loves his long red shorts and white shirt. There are times when he dons his red tie that has a design of small white cats on it. His shoes are white with red laces. Drummer has led a life full of fun and frolic trying to nibble on whatever he can lay his tiny paws on. There are tough times too when food is limited and cats are in abundance. Drummer shivers at the sight of cats and his whiskers turn red and his little pink nose freezes and turns white. Drummer is studying in middle school. He is proud to study in the best school for mice called The Little Mouse Hills School. He lives with his parents in a small hole in the big oak tree in the neighbourhood which he calls his Oak Tree House.Today I want to tell you about an incident from Drummer's life. This incident took place about five years ago. It was a nice sunny day and Drummer was going to his school with a red and blue backpack slung on his back and a red water bottle in his hand. Drummer was dashing zig zag on the road. He would roll across the road, disappear in the bushes on the roadside and reappear from nowhere. This continued for sometime. Drummer would roll like a ball of wool and dash across the road. He was close to his school when he suddenly stopped. He could see a big shining ball that looked like the Almighty Sun close to the road. He looked past the wide road and got curious to see the shining ball on the other end. He was moving his head left and right to get a clear view of the ball and was suddenly shaken by the tremors rising from the road. The road stood up like a giant beast. It started to grow ears, eyes, nose, mouth, arms and legs and started to walk towards Drummer. Drummer froze and gulped. He was shivering, his whiskers were red and his nose had turned white. He could hear his heart beat increasing at an exceedingly fast pace. His eyes grew big and he tried to move back but his legs refused to move. He was grounded, baffled, scared and almost .... dead!! He wanted to scream his heart out but he was not even able to squeal. He could hear his heart rattle and chant speedily like a racing car, Oh My God! Oh My God! Oh My God! Oh My God! Oh My God! Oh My God!......He had stopped breathing. He was unable to see clearly. He tried his best but could not stop himself from falling. He had fainted!! He lay there on the road for sometime. It must have been an hour or two that he lay there on the road. Then he heard his mother calling out his name, "Drummer, get up Drummer, you will be late for school again Drummer!!" Drummer slowly opened his eyes and looked up. He saw his mother staring sternly at him. He looked around but could not see the Road Beast. "Oh, this was a dream, I was dreaming," said Drummer. Now that was some respite. Drummer started to roll across in his Oak Tree House. He was relieved and happy to be alive. He started to hum his favourite song, "I am the little mouse kid Drummer, I am the best hummer, I sing and dance till supper, I am the little mouse kid Drummer".
